"Benton is a good all-around athlete that showed he has very good potential in all the jumps," said Dalzell. "He will be a great addition to our jumping group and potentially at the multi-events. We are very excited to have him join the TXWES track and field family!"

The Rams just completed the year with their first SAC men's team championship, a runner-up finish for the ladies in the SAC, six NAIA All-Americans (two indoor and four outdoor), a 13th place finish for the men as a team at nationals and their first NAIA National Champion (Tajean Houston in the men's 110 hurdles).
